Original Description
Laura Coombs Hills' Morning Glory is a captivating watercolor that exemplifies the delicate beauty of American Impressionism in the late 19th century. Painted in 1901, this exquisite still life showcases a vase brimming with vibrant morning glory blossoms, their petals glowing in soft blues and purples against a warm, diffused background. Hills, one of the pioneers of watercolor in America, masterfully blends botanical precision with an ethereal, light-filled quality, reminiscent of works by Mary Cassatt or John Singer Sargent. The composition’s intimate scale and luminous color harmonies reflect the influence of the Arts and Crafts Movement, emphasizing handcrafted elegance and nature’s fleeting moments. Though less widely recognized than her male peers, Hills’ work holds a significant place in art history for elevating watercolor—often dismissed as a "minor" medium—into fine art. Morning Glory embodies her signature ability to infuse quiet domestic scenes with poetic resonance.
For interior styling, this artwork’s serene palette and organic forms make it ideal for spaces designed to evoke tranquility—a sunlit reading nook, a bedroom, or a spa-like bathroom. Hang it in a minimalist frame (think slim gold or whitewashed wood) to complement its ethereal charm without overwhelming smaller rooms. The painting’s soft blues and purples pair beautifully with neutral tones like creamy whites or pale grays, while accents in woven textures (linen cushions, rattan furniture) enhance its Arts and Crafts heritage. In offices, position it near a workspace to inspire calm creativity; its modest size (typical of Hills’ watercolors) suits gallery walls or a focal point above a console table. For contrast, place it alongside modern ceramics or matte black finishes to bridge tradition and contemporary flair. Ultimately, Morning Glory thrives in environments where its delicate blooms can whisper rather than shout.
